If you wouldn't mind...
Please join us in praying for my cousin’s daughter Isabelle. She was diagnosed with abdominal cancer this past weekend. Isabelle is 9 days younger than Isaac.
Pray for peace and calm for her parents Kyle and Tina as well.
Thanks.
I hate Charley Steiner
Besides the obvious reasons, I hate Steiner for jinxing the Dodgers yesterday during the top of the 9th.
Here is the situation. The Dodgers need one win to clinch the NL West title. They are tied 2-2 with the Pirates going into the 9th. The Dodgers score the go ahead run, and then one more to make it 4-2. At this point Steiner says something idiotic like “Get the bubbly ready!” signifying that the Dodgers will be celebrating at any moment. Moments later, the Dodgers score a 5th run and Steiner says “Champagne anyone?”
After both comments I say (outloud), “The game isn’t over Steiner, you idiot!” Sure enough the Pirates scored 4 runs in the bottom of the 9th off the suddenly very hittable Jonathon Broxton to win 6-5.
Fortunately the Dodgers had another chance to clinch the NL West today against the hapless Pirates. Unfortunately they got blown out of the water, 11-1.
Thanks Chuck.

Eric Elbogen of Say Hi - clever little Beatles reference
Profile on the new Bazan record. I have always been fascinated by Bazan and I think this record represents an interesting case study of faith in crisis. Definitely check it out if you can.
USC stole that game. If I was an OSU fan I would shoot myself.
OSU continues to prove they don’t belong anywhere near the upper echelon.
Songs for Eating and Drinking
Was searching the web for reviews of David Bazan’s new album (haven’t got it yet but I will be doing so soon) and came across this web site. What a cool concept!
Latest Letter from a Leaver
I really like the latest letter posted to Letters from Leavers. You should read it.
I have given up on the Dodgers, bring on college football season!
At the all-star break I had visions of the Dodgers winning the World Series. After the last two games watching them lose to the Diamondbacks (the Diamondbacks?! One of the worst teams in baseball!!!) and watching their only consistent pitcher in the second half (Kuroda) get his head blasted yesterday, and watching Kershaw go from the most dominant pitcher in baseball to a guy who can’t throw strikes, and watching Broxton also go from being the most dominant pitcher in baseball to a guy who couldn’t get a save if his life depended on it, and watching Russell Martin continue his season long funk, and watching Casey Blake and Manny Ramirez go weeks without having a meaningful hit with runners on….etc. etc. whatever, I give up. If the Dodgers somehow limp into the playoffs and somehow make it past the first round then I will pay attention again, but until then go ahead and continue to be the worst team in baseball since the All-Star break and play completely uninspired baseball.
20 days until USC football!!!
